If you purchased a diskless ReadyNAS, after you install the hard disks and perform the
optional RAID Configuration (see the ReadyNAS User Guide for complete instructions),
you must wait until the volume creation has completed before accessing the FrontView™
Setup Wizard (see theReadyNAS Setup Manual). It will take up to 2 hours, depending on
disk capacity.
An additional 2 to 10 hours are required before the RAID synchronization has completed
and the system is fully redundant. During the background RAID synchronization, access
to the NAS will be slower than normal. The RAIDar Status column, shown in the
preceding table, will indicate progress.
Caution: While synchronization is underway, do not turn off the ReadyNAS 1100.
Set up ReadyNAS 1100
Start RAIDar (see the ReadyNAS Setup Manual for complete instructions), and then power
on the ReadyNAS. The ReadyNAS system will appear in the RAIDar scan list. Click
Setup to start the FrontView Setup Wizard. The default user name is admin and the
password is netgear1.
